Bench press - Most ever: 455, Now: prob about 385

Deadlifts - have done 495 x 10 before, can do it 4 or 5 now

Squats - did 505 x 8 before, going lighter now for knee

Leg press - ? as much as our machine would hold

Back pull downs - usually stick with about 200 or 210 x 10

I dont really keep track, I just try to go heavier than the week before, here's what I have off the top of my head or in my latest training journal. I dont count cable stuff because all machine's the weights vary IMO.

Big, strong, and good looking. A triple threat guy huh. :lol: Insane numbers. What's funny is I'm a pretty big guy, but my body just isn't built to handle a ton of weight. Maybe I'm just a b!tch. :(

If by good looking you mean Shrek-like, then yes, I would be a triple threat :)

My frame and leverages (huge when it comes to power output) are pretty much ideal for handling heavy weights, but its also what gives me my ogre-ish build.

Heh. I'll say. I would crumble under that weight, no matter how long I trained for.

I have the same problem. I think most people are suprsied when they see the weights I lift with. I can deadlift and squat a good bit, but my bench is HORRIBLE. 275 was my max. I'm 5'8", 218lbs, about 13%bf. I should be getting way more.
 
Well... you can pretty much take everybody's digits and multiply that by .2 - .25 and then take the product and subtract that from the original number ;) Since I'm not macho and I'm not into untamed movements I'll be honest about what I do. Whatever.

Incline Dumbell Press: 100lbs each arm, 10-12 times with a good negative and explosive concentric. Some days I can only or will only do 80-85s if my shoulders are beaten.

Overhead bar shoulder press (standing) - I will just man handle 175 for 10 reps and envision the weight being a corpse.

Dumbell shoulder press - 85 lbs each arm for 10-12 reps. Yes, my shoulders are as strong as my chest almost. Whatever.

Squats - Every so often I do squats I'll just load 225 on the bar and crank out 20 reps straight through for a couple sets with virtually perfect precision.

Power cleans - Once in a while I'll do these first to maintain good strength and form at this explosive, awesome, compound movement. I will clean 185 lbs for 10 reps with great tempo and precision.

Curls? - My biceps are too big as it is. I don't do these.

So basically you're a ****. And why couldn't you just say take 75% of the given number?

I have to wonder why you wouldn't believe peoples claims, did some dude break your heart in the past?

Obviously you shouldn't believe other peoples claims because they claim that they are doing more than him, and thats just not possible
 
Bench: 285

DB Bench: 100's * 6.............been a while since ive used DB's.
Bar Incline: 225 * 4.

DB Press: 80's * 10

BB Curl: 100 * 10. Have been stuck here for months but arms have grown nontheless.

Squat: Don't even ask. Its below 200. I've only just started doing them again.

All of this at the measly weight of 240lbs. Sad i know.

By end of next year i want my bench @ 315 withhopefully a lower body weight.

Hey, as long as you're making progress and as long as you're happy with the progress you are making, that's all that should matter. We all start somewhere. Do you think Nick started benching 700 overnight? Personally I recently started squatting again because I've always had problems with my knees. I front squatted 235 for 8 and my knees were screaming! But they feel a lot better than they used to. So what if I don't use a lot of weight. I've been happy with my leg development over the past two months since I started hitting the legs hard like I used to. It feels great. By the way, I've noticed that lunges have really helped with my knee problems.

very true i know. Building up is a long process but the numbers are going up so i shouldn't complain. My problem is trying to cut but maintaining strength. I've always been a little tubby but im 6'2 so i can hide it but I'd like to get back to 220 with the same strength levels i have now if not more..........damn i hate cardio

That dude is a dumbass. Most Powerlifters don't lie about there numbers since we compete in meets and the numbers are recorded. Everyones results are on PowerliftingWatch.com if your that skeptical or think there lieing.

I apprecaite the laughs, especially that PM...

But maybe if you were a little more open minded, and didnt disqualify other's accomplishments, I would've been a little nicer.

Either way, I'm glad we're not gonna meet in person, cuz that "dirt nap" doesn't sound too fun to me... :D
 
Force of Green, why dont you go take a picture of yourself and stop talking crap. You profile pick is FLAMING GAY.....why do you try to be so tough? :toofunny:
 
Any chance we can stop using me as the negative focal point of attention please? ;) My mistake for the 75% comment, I'm used to people lying to me about that. I shouldn't have transcended my distrust to the board members. My apologies ;) And if my profile is flaming gay... lol... cool by me!
 
Weight: 180lbs

Bench Press - 285lbs
Squat - 400lbs
Deadlift - 400lbs

Those numbers are pretty rough as I haven't maxed out in a while and those are estimates. During my lifting experiences I've never really focused on improving my lifts until recently; I mostly focused on improving physique. It finally dawned on me I can improve my physique while improving my lifts. The thing is I don't want to become too bulky. I'd never want to weigh more than 200lbs, staying lean of course. My plan is to hit a certain weight and then maximize my strength gains for that bodyweight. By next summer I'd like to be around 190lbs and cut, and obviously improve my lifts drastically.
